Melbourne is 8 hours ahead of Amsterdam. Put the other way round: Amsterdam is 8 hours behind Melbourne.
Amsterdam is UTC+2 in summer and UTC+1 in winter; Melbourne is UTC+10 and UTC+11.
A nine-to-five in Amsterdam and a nine-to-five in Melbourne do not overlap at all. Somebody has to move: the nearest workable slots are early morning in one city or late evening in the other, which is the kind of thing the planner is for.
Amsterdam changes its clocks for summer and Melbourne does not, so there is no single answer: the gap is 8 hours for the northern summer and 10 hours for the rest of the year.

This page covers one pair. TimeGap takes a list: add every city you care about, drag one marker, and every row reads the same instant on its own clock. It marks the hours you would actually take a call, finds the window where the most people are reachable, flags public holidays, and puts the time you pick straight into Outlook or Google Calendar.
